Elgin Cathedral.
A SERIES of FIVE VIEWS of the VENERABLE and MAGNIFICENT RUINS of this justly celebrated CATHEDRAL, from accurate Drawings taken by Mr. William Clark, an Artist, resident at Elgin.
This most splendid Edifice, which has for Centuries past called forth the admiration of the Artist, the Antiquary, and the Connoisseur, is too well known to require any eulogium; and the interesting Views now offered to the public, comprehend every Arch and object worthy of notice in the whole of its extensive range. The Engravings are executed in the most finished style of Aquatinta, and printed in the Bistre Tint, in imitation of the Original Drawings.
To render them still more interesting and complete, they are accompanied by a most accurate and neatly engraved Ground Plan of the Cathedral, exhibiting the whole Range of its Foundations, taken expressly for the Work, by Mr. Robertson, Architect.
Price Two Guineas and a Half, in a Cover, with a Descriptive and Historical Account of the Cathedral, from its erection in 1224. A very limited number of Proofs have been taken off on India paper, price Four Guineas.
Speedily will be published, as a companion to Coleridge’s “Six Months in the West Indies,” and uniformly printed with that deservedly popular work, a volume, entitled,
SKETCHES and RECOLLECTIONS of the WEST INDIES; with Notices of the Customs and Manners of the Inhabitants, State of the Slave Population, &c.; and embracing an account of the Attack on Dominica by the French Squadron from Rochefort, in 1805.
